New Young Carers Cohort for EMOTIONS DISCOVERY in Warwickshire
I am proud to say that after such a positive response from two groups of Young Carers and their families in Coventry, a new cohort begins for Warwickshire Young Carers and their families in November!
Emotions Discovery works really well with these groups, and I am keen to offer it for similar groups, whether they be charities or community groups.
Proud to be a Charity Trustee.
I have recently become a Trustee for this local Coventry charity. It is my way of giving back to my community.
You can help the charity in a number of ways including using their soft play centre and Party facilities.
JANUARY 2025 BLOG
New Year - Fresh Start
We hear a lot, this time of year about...
NEW YEAR, NEW YOU
I have been guilty of this in the past, myself!
Many therapists, wellbeing & health practitioners, diet companies etc really play on the New Year Resolution thing, and that we could not possibly be happy with ourselves!
Well, I don't do resolutions, they set me up to fail! Which just makes me more miserable!
But it got me thinking about how life changes us; events, people, knowledge etc all impact us, and we change.
New Year - Fresh Start!
You deserve it!
Often when an adult reaches breaking point, burn out, despair, there will have been a breaking point... the straw that broke the camel's back.
However, it is often a life time build up of hurt, disappointment, fear and difficulties that have been stored in the body that are actually the cause.
Adults often come to me with a particular problem in mind, often a recent one, but others will be uncovered and processed, often from childhood or early adulthood.
Children benefit from accessing this kind of support early... preventing the build up, so they don't reach that breaking point later. We are also teaching them that getting support is normal and the right thing to do from an early age.
So, whether you are 4 or 104, or anywhere in between - you deserve that fresh start!
Have things impacted you? Undoubtedly.
It is how we survive, we evolve.
But sometimes, for some people, we haven't taken the breath, the time, to acknowledge feelings, (we've swept them under the carpet, locked them in a cupboard), we haven't really processed any of it.
We have been too caught up in duty, responsibility, protecting and supporting others...
So do you have too much baggage, is it weighing you down?
New Year - Fresh Start!
The words around these posts are just some of the things that can cause Emotional Trauma. Trauma is an injury, it hurts. Our bodies, our minds, our genetics are all beautifully unique, what affects one person may have no impact on another.
There is no RIGHT or WRONG way to react.
There is no TIME LIMIT.
And importantly, there is NO JUDGEMENT from me.
I have NO AGENDA - this is person centred work; you draw, you talk, you process... all at your own pace.
I HOLD the safe space for you to do that.
Who even am I?
This hit me a few years ago when someone called me Trish. Yes, that is my name. But no-one had really used it for years! I was MUM at home, MRS JARVIS at work, BABE or HUN to my friends...
Where was Trish? Who was Trish? What did she like & enjoy? Where had her life gone? I had lost me in the responsibility of being an adult, a parent, a partner, a carer... and in traumatic events that had caused me to shut things off.
Do you know who you are? Do you miss the OLD YOU? Would processing some of the LIFE STUFF help you to find YOU again?
Worth thinking about, isn't it?
If you want to start 2025 with a Fresh Start, and maybe try to reclaim the old you...
- by reducing the emotional baggage you carry
- by processing that emotionally traumatic event
- by giving yourself the time and space you need
Please send me an email or text to arrange a convenient time for a FREE, no obligation, chat about your needs and how Drawing & Talking might help you.
Keeping Clients SAFE
